    On cohomology of the Higson compactification of hyperbolic spaces (English)
    0 references
    The authors consider the Higson compactification \(\overline{\mathbb H}^n\) (resp., \(h_0\mathbb H^n\)) of the \(n\)-dimensional hyperbolic space \(\mathbb H^n\) with respect to the bounded (resp., \(C_0\)) coarse structure. They prove that, for any \(n\), \(\bar{H}^k(h_0\mathbb H^n)=0\) for all \(k\), and \(\bar{H}^k(\overline{\mathbb H}^n)=0\) for all even \(k\), where \(\bar H^k\) denotes the \(k\)-th reduced Čech cohomology group. It was known that \(H^1(\overline{\mathbb H}^n)\neq 0\), and the authors explain, why their approach doesn't work for odd \(k\).
